D & S Taxidermy in Pasadena Tx did a fine job on my first two mounts taken last year with Limcroma Safaris in South Africa.

That looks almost exactly as my Kudu was standing when I shot him at 30 yards. Going to pass this along to my Taxidermist!

Bow Hunt South Africa Blue Wildebeest by razorsharptokill posted Sep 4, 2017 at 5:41 AM

He ran about 125 yards. I saw a HUGE spray of bright red blood blow out of his mouth on his death run. 150 gr VPA unvented that was scary sharp.

A last minute opportunity, this Bull came in at last light and offered a perfect quartering away shot at 23 yards if I remember correctly.

Going through pics of our trip back in August. What attention to detail in every respect. Fond memories!

Report should be in the hunting reports section. https://www.africahunting.com/threads/south-africa-bowhunt-limcroma-safaris-august-2017.40072/

I took my recurve and compound. My furthest shot was on the Kudu at exactly 30 yards. Some blinds are more trad friendly than others. Hunted a different blind almost daily so I stuck to the wheels. There should be a report I did here on the bow hunting page.

Wish I was going back this year! Good luck!

Kudu Zebra wildebeest blesbuck red hartebeest gemsbok impala are all NON CITES, correct?

It was amazing! Limcroma is 1st rate! I'd love to go again! The luggage wasn't too bad to find. Bow cases come out in a separate area than luggage.

Wow! Awesome hunt and great pics! I already want to go back!

About 22 yards I believe. 125 grain non vented VPA in front of a heavy Easton FMJ. 65lb compound. The arrow flew further than he ran. You can see the hair flying. That broadhead was scary sharp. Lucky to get this shot. Limcroma Safaris PH Hardus shot this vid. Great guy and excellent PH!

This old Red Hartebeast was prime for stalking. A "razorsharp.... "see what I did there?" LOL cut on impact broad head (125gr VPA nonvented) in front of a heavy FMJ barely slowed down. He ran a ways then just laid down and went to sleep.

This is my Impala. About a 24 yard shot. This one was I was lucky on. I failed to notice that he was quartering away.(see video) I aimed straight up the leg right in the triangle formed by the leg and shoulder bones. What I thought looked like a perfect shot was in reality, too far forward and...

My 1st South African animal, this Kudu was 30 yards exactly and slightly quartering away. A heavy arrow and razor sharp broadhead that is cut on impact is very effective as you can see.

This was a 23 yard shot with a 150 grain VPA 3 blade broadhead on a 29" Easton FMJ arrow with 50 grains of brass weight behind the insert out of a 65 lb compound. The arrow was about 10 yards beyond where the bull was standing. Razor sharp broadhead and a well tuned semi heavy arrow are a good...

"VPA"...

"When" I go back, I will give it a try.

Yes. I understand your point. It is valid. It comes with blaze orange also. Not fool proof but better than nothing. At Limcroma safaris, the rifle hunters and bow hunters were hunting different concessions. On my hunt I'm pretty certain that my PH and I were the only two on the concession we...

This decoy velcro mounts to the front of your bow. Weighs only ounces. Looks very similar to a Kudu cow to me. Anyone ever heard of this being tried? I have seen it work on North American game but Africa might be whole different story. It could be worth a try. Thoughts?

It shows what a razor sharp broad head will do. The arrow is well out the opposite side and he still hadn't flinched. He only went about 30 yards and fell over. That was a 125 grain VP three blade unvented.

Wow! He's nice! How far was that shot? Great series of still frames. I can't wait to go back!

You can't go wrong with Limcroma Safaris! Did my 1st South Africa plains game hunt with them in August and I was very pleased with every aspect of their operation.

Our Limcroma Safaris PH, Hardus shot this video. I saw these two frames and had to share.
